Everything You Need to Know About the State of New York (NY)
The Dutch were the first to settle by the Hudson River in 1624. After two years, they founded the colony of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island. By 1664, the English had taken control of the area and changed its name to New York. A part of the original 13 colonies, New York played a vital political and strategic role in the American Revolution.
On July 26, 1788, New York was awarded statehood. It is a state that has housed immigrants from all over the world, making it the epitome of cosmopolitan ethics.
Between 1892 and 1954, millions of immigrants arrived in New York Harbor and passed Ellis Island as part of their process of becoming U.S. citizens. As a result, approximately 40% of Americans can trace a part of their ancestry to Ellis Island. New York City is the largest city in the United States and is a primary international economic center, housing the New York Stock Exchange and is a major international economic center.
New York is located in the Mid-Atlantic Census Bureau division in the northeastern United States. New York has an area of 54,556 square miles. This makes it the 27th largest state by total area (but 30th by land area). The state is bordered by six states in the United States. These states are Pennsylvania and New Jersey to the south, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east.
New York also has the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec to the north and the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast. Two of the Great Lakes: Lake Erie to the west and Lake Ontario, are also located to its northwest side.
The state capital is Albany.
New York has the moniker "the Empire State." The state's tree is the Sugar Maple, and its flower is the Rose. Excelsior, which means "Ever Upward," is New York's motto.
New York City was the first capital of the United States after the Constitution was endorsed in 1788. On April 30, 1789, George Washington was instated as the nation’s first president at Federal Hall, located on Wall Street.
The popular tabloid New York Post was initially founded in 1801 as a Federalist newspaper. It was called the New York Evening Post by Alexander Hamilton, an author of the Federalist papers and the nation's first Secretary of the Treasury.
The Statue of Liberty was a gift from the people of France to honor the United States' unchanging dedication to freedom and democracy and the coalition between both countries during the American Revolution. Established in 1886 on Bedloe's Island (later renamed Liberty Island) in New York Harbor, the statue was a welcoming symbol to the 14 million immigrants who came into the United States through New York until 1924.
New York City contains approximately 660 miles of subway track connecting 468 subway stations. The lowest station is 180 feet below street level. In 2011, over 1.6 billion people used the subway.
With three waterfalls in the U.S. and Canadian region, Niagara Falls has about 12 million visitors each year. The American Falls in New York is almost 180 feet high and 1,100 feet long. The Niagara River creates enough hydroelectric power to supply more than a quarter of all the power New York and Ontario use.
The National Baseball Hall of Fame is situated in Cooperstown, New York.
Car Shipping in New York
Factors affecting Car Shipping Costs
Car shipping costs are not fixed, and varying factors contribute to its pricing. This explains why car shipping companies request specific information before providing you with an estimate. The most common factors that influence the cost of shipping a car are:
1. Distance
One of the most critical factors is the distance to be covered while shipping your car. Shipping shorter distances usually cost less than longer distances. This is because most shipping companies charge per mileage, hence, the higher the mileage covered, the higher the price. Also, considerations are made for extra gas and extra pay for drivers when your car is transported over very long distances.
2. Method of Shipping
The open and enclosed methods are the two primary methods of car shipping. The open method is the cheaper and most common method. It involves transporting cars in an open carriage. This method, however, is less safe than the enclosed method.
The enclosed method is used mainly by those who own luxurious and expensive cars. Also, those concerned about their cars being affected by dust, rain, and snow. This method ensures that the cars are covered and have no exposure to external elements. As a result, the enclosed method is more expensive.
3. Functionality
The state of the vehicle to be shipped also determines its cost. For example, suppose you are shipping a car that is not operational and needs to be towed or forklifted. In that case, your car shipping cost will be significantly higher than if the car is fully operational and can work without any help.
Seasons Car shipping companies are typically in higher demand during summer. This can be attributed to the fact that most people decide to move or go on holiday during this period. As a result, cars shipped during this period will cost more than those shipped at other times of the year.
Location Areas that are not very accessible usually cost more, as shipping companies have limited carriers who can go to such areas, compared to larger cities. Hence, you can save some money on car shipping if you are located in a central and more accessible area. Cars shipped from remote areas often experience delays in pick-up and delivery times.
Pick-up and Delivery Flexibility How flexible you are with your pick-up, and delivery date also influences your shipping costs. If you are pressed for time and unwilling to adjust your pick-up and delivery dates, you can expect to pay more to ship your car at your preferred time.
Weight and Size of Vehicle The higher the weight of your car and the bigger the size also determines its shipping costs. Larger cars take up more space in a carrier and affect the number of cars that can fit into the carriage. Also, there is a limit to the overall weight a car shipping truck can carry, hence, weightier cars cost more than lighter ones. The amount of gas consumed is also considered.
Choosing the Right Auto Transport Company
To have a seamless car shipping process, you need to pay careful attention to the car shipping company you engage. Here are a few things to consider.
1. Reviews
Reviews are vital as they give you information about the experiences others have had with that company. If a company has a lot of negative reviews, you can trust they are not the best company to engage. Look out for companies with a great deal of positive reviews, as you can depend on them to give your car the kind of attention and care it deserves.However, you should note that a car shipping company that has absolutely no bad reviews may be purchasing reviews.
2. Cost
You can request a quote from different companies and make a comparison to find out which offers the same services and has the most reasonable pricing. However, the lowest or highest cost does not necessarily equate to the best option. This is why you should confirm exactly what services each company is offering.
3. Available Routes
Before engaging the services of a company, you should find out if your location is one the company plies. It is best if you speak to a representative of the company to confirm that their services cover both your pick-up and delivery location.
4. Transparency and Communication
It is also essential that you observe how the company communicates. If the representatives do not communicate properly or if the company generally uses a lot of vagueness, you should be cautious. Some companies exploit customers by using vague communications.
Preparing Your Car for Shipping
Before you have your car shipped, it is best you do the following:
1. Empty your gas tank
You do not need a full gas tank to ship your car. In fact, you need just enough to transport your car to the pick-up point and from the delivery location. Usually, you only need to fill your tank to a quarter of its capacity for this.
Filling your gas tank only increases your car’s weight, which consequently increases the cost of shipping your car.
2. Clean and Declutter
Both the interior and exterior of your car should be thoroughly cleaned. This makes it easier to identify if there was any damage to the vehicle during transit. Removing all unnecessary items also reduces the weight of your car. Although auto transport companies are responsible for the safety of your car, they are not held responsible if any item in your car is missing. Hence, all personal and valuable items must be removed from the vehicle before shipping.
3. Take Photographs
It would be best if you took photographs of your car before shipping to reference your car’s physical state before it is shipped. This helps provide evidence in case there are scratches or other damages to your car during shipping.

The iconic New York City Subway system is the most extensive rapid transit system in the world when gauged by stations in operation. Most of New York’s subway systems are open 24 hours a day, compared to other cities that stop operations at night. Such cities include Hong Kong, London, Paris, Seoul, and Tokyo. The New York City Subway is also the most active urban rail transit system in the Western Hemisphere. It had roughly 1.76 billion passenger rides in 2015. Grand Central Terminal, also referred to as “Grand Central Station,” is the world’s largest railway station according to its number of train platforms.
Public transport is crucial in New York City. For example, 54.6% of New Yorkers went to work in 2005 using mass transit. This contrasts with the rest of the United States, where 91% of people use automobiles to get to their workplaces.
New York City’s commuter rail network is the biggest in North America. The rail network links New York City to its suburbs. It consists of the Long Island Rail Road, Metro-North Railroad, and New Jersey Transit. The combined systems merge at Grand Central Terminal and Pennsylvania Station and have more than 250 stations and 20 rail lines. The elevated AirTrain people mover system in Queens connects JFK International Airport to the New York City Subway and the Long Island Rail Road. A separate AirTrain system is scheduled alongside the Grand Central Parkway to link LaGuardia Airport to these transit systems. For intercity rail services, New York City is served by Amtrak.
Pennsylvania Station is on the West Side of Manhattan. It is where Amtrak provides connections to Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., along the Northeast Corridor, and long-distance train services to other North American cities.
The Staten Island Railway rapid transit system exclusively serves Staten Island, operating 24 hours a day. The Port Authority Trans-Hudson (PATH train) connects Midtown and Lower Manhattan to northeastern New Jersey, mainly Hoboken, Jersey City, and Newark. Like the New York City Subway, the PATH operates 24 hours daily. This means three of the six rapid transit systems in the world that operate on a 24-hour basis are wholly or partly in New York.
There are 1,673 miles of Interstate Highways within New York (combined). These highways control about 19% of vehicle travel in New York. At approximately 0.50 miles, I-78 is the shortest main interstate highway, while I-90 is the longest, traversing 385.88 miles (621.01 km) within New York. I-878, located in Queens, is the shortest active route in the Interstate Highway System at 0.7 miles.
Local authorities manage small portions of I-278 in New York City instead of the state transportation agency. In addition, parts of I-87, I-287, I-90, I-190, and I-95 are part of the New York State Thruway system and thus are maintained by the New York State Thruway Authority.
Despite New York’s heavy dependence on its vast public transit system, streets are a defining element of the city. As a result, Manhattan’s street grid plan greatly influenced the city’s physical development. New York City also has an expansive web of expressways and parkways, which connects the city’s boroughs to each other and to northern New Jersey, Westchester County, Long Island, and southwestern Connecticut via various bridges and tunnels. Because these highways benefit millions of outer borough and suburban residents who commute into Manhattan, it is quite common for motorists to be stranded for hours in traffic jams daily, especially during rush hour.
New York City’s public bus fleet runs 24/7 and is the most extensive in North America. The Port Authority Bus Terminal is the main intercity bus terminal of the city. It serves 7,000 buses and 200,000 commuters daily, making it the busiest bus station in the world.
New York’s airspace is the most active in the United States and one of the world’s busiest air transportation corridors. The three busiest airports in the New York metropolitan area include John F. Kennedy International Airport, Newark Liberty International Airport, and LaGuardia Airport. Approximately 130.5 million travelers used these airports in 2016. JFKwas the busiest U.S. gateway for international passengers in North America in 2012, while Newark Lierty was the 4th busiest in 2012.
The Staten Island Ferry is the world’s busiest ferry route, carrying over 23 million passengers from July 2015 through June 2016 on the 5.2-mile (8.4 km) route between Staten Island and Lower Manhattan. It ran 24 hours a day. Other ferry systems shuttle commuters between Manhattan and other locales within the city and the metropolitan area.
NYC Ferry, an NYCEDC initiative with pathways planned to travel to all five boroughs, was established in 2017, with second graders selecting the names of the ferries. Meanwhile, Seastreak ferry announced the construction of a 600-passenger high-speed luxury ferry in September 2016 to shuttle riders between the Jersey Shore and Manhattan. It is anticipated to start service in 2017; this would be the largest vessel in its class.
Also, New York City is located in one of the world’s largest natural harbors. The boroughs of Manhattan and Staten Island are (primarily) coterminous with islands of the same names. In contrast, Queens and Brooklyn are located at the west end of the larger Long Island, and The Bronx is located at the southern tip of New York State’s mainland. This situation of boroughs separated by water led to the development of an extensive infrastructure of well-known bridges and tunnels.
Manhattan Island is linked to New York City’s outer boroughs and New Jersey by several tunnels. The Lincoln Tunnel, which carries 120,000 vehicles a day under the Hudson River between New Jersey and Midtown Manhattan, is the busiest vehicular tunnel in the world. The tunnel was built in replacement of a bridge to allow unconstrained passage of large passenger and cargo ships that sailed through New York Harbor and up the Hudson River to Manhattan’s harbors.

I needed to ship my SUV from Hanover, NH to Seattle. Fernanda Lopez was my point of contact for my shipping needs. She was prompt, patient and very helpful in accommodating my shipping dates and ensured we stayed in touch throughout the process. The quote I got was reasonable and I would venture to say cheaper than the other quotes I received, without any compromise. I received my car within 5 days and I couldn't be a more satisfied customer. High recommend ShipACar and especially Fernanda for their great service, price, and support.

I've been working with Ship A Car for years. Danny over there takes care of me well. He gets me a broker right away. The few times I've had issues with the carrier, he helped me take care of it. I've done several vehicles and everything went well. When I book, I call him up on his number. I text him the location, where it's being shipped to, where it's coming from, and the VIN number. He does a search, sends me a quote, tells me about what it should be, even before I even bid on the vehicle. He does a good job coming in with that radius and getting me someone right away.

This was my first experience with using a transport company for a vehicle, after reading reviews about different companies I was nervous. Bob Moran with Ship A Car had some good reviews so I called him to get a quote. The price was in range with others I had called but I felt more comfortable working with Bob. I called Bob on Friday of Labor day weekend at 4:30pm, he was able to have my vehicle picked up on the following Tuesday in Colorado and delivered to me in Northern Illinois Thursday morning. The driver, Egor, called me Wednesday afternoon and we made arrangements to drop off the vehicle at 6:00am so I could get to work, he was very accommodating to my schedule. I am not one to post any reviews but I felt these guys deserved to be praised. I would definitely use them again.

I had a seamless first-time vehicle transport experience with Ship A Car, inc. I know that is largely because of Bob Moran, the coordinator who helped me. Personable, patient, professional, always willing to answer further questions, he gave me excellent customer service and I greatly appreciate it! I was so nervous and dreading getting started but Bob put me at ease and I quickly gained great confidence in the company because of his easy and knowledgeable communication. In addition, the driver dispatched to move my car from Los Angeles To St Petersburg, Florida was punctual, called when he was supposed to, prior to pickup/delivery, and made great time completing the transport. He picked up Monday around 2 pm and delivered at 9 am on that Friday. I have nothing but praise for Ship A Car, Inc. and enthusiastically recommend them!

I booked my car with Howard . To ship from Atlantic Beach Florida to Irvine California . We agreed to 1300.00 fee . That included three containers in my car upto 100lbs... upon delivery I was charged an extra $100.00 for the containers. They would NOT unload my car until I gave them the extra $100.00 dollars. I had called Howard several times on the issue and he never resolved the issue of the extra 100.00 dollars . This company is a ripoff. They are by far the most expensive ones out there. I will also be reporting them to the BBB. I was so excited to have my shipped only to have a huge negative experience with this company.

I was put in charge of having a vintage car shipped (enclosed) from Pennsylvania to Chicago. It was something my brother bought on eBay. Already a little scary to me. So I did a google search, called a bunch of car transporting brokers and found 2 companies I wanted to go with....Ship A Car, Inc and Automobile Guy....turns out they are brother companies...but I liked Danny Transport Coordinator here because he answered ALL 100 questions I rapid fired at him with patience, thoroughness...even when I called him back several times.
The car was picked up when the seller was ready to ship (a few days) and delivered to Chicago the very next morning. In PERFECT condition! I received several follow up calls from Danny to report the pickup and arrival time!
I HIGHLY recommend this company and if you can get Danny on the phone I have no doubt you will get the service you are looking for!!

I worked with Paul S. He gave me a competitive quote. Agreed to the price and he came back quick with a transport but they wanted $80 more. I declined because it was more than original quote. He got me 3 more quotes a few days later and all wanted $80+ more from original quote. Still competitive, so I agreed with one finally, albeit hesitant because I didn’t like having to pay more but like I said, still competitive. Well, I was pleasantly surprised with the transport chosen, they did a great job! On time pick up, on time (even a bit early) delivery, kept me updated on everything along the way. In the end of the story, a very positive experience! Would use them and recommend them again!

We strongly recommend contacting a shipping company directly. For the $225 fee we had little or no communication from pick-up (we were able to find the name/number of the driver we were told was going to pick up our bike -- but he was unaware he was supposed to pick it up and wouldn't have on the scheduled day had we not contacted him) until delivery unless we initiated and tracked down individuals, most of who were drivers and unable to assist us as to located the bike and determining a deliver date. The estimated delivery date was off by a full week and attempts to find a more accurate delivery date was unsuccessful (though we did manage to contact a driver that left the bike in Oklahoma City -- though courtesous and wanting to be helpful, couldn't help us). We received less than 24 hours notice of delivery. Finally, even the payment instructions were in error so that when the bike was finally delivered, the form of payment (a cashier's check as we were instructed to prepare) was not correct. We ended up paying by credit card, not a problem, but seems like a simple detail that a brokerage company should be aware of. Instead, we wasted time one evening to go to our bank to secure an unnecessary cashier's check. My advice? Bypass this broker company and contact shipper directly. We gained no advantage or service worth the $225 on top of the $525 to ship the bike. We could have saved $225 OR spent the combined $750 on renting a truck, fuel and one night hotel to transport it ourselves with more predictability.

Contacted Ship-A-Car in early May 2018 and spoke with Steve G. He answered almost all of my questions immediately about shipping my new BMW to east coast. Those he couldn't answer he got back to me in less than a day with all the information I needed. A few weeks later my car was at the port on Maui and in less than one month it was safely sitting in my garage in North Carolina and in the exact same, excellent condition. I will ship other cars in the future and I will use Ship-A-Car and Steve.

From the dispatcher, Rose, to the kind driver, Ted, all treated my urgency with respect. My car was picked up 1 day sooner and delivered on time and was I happy. I had previously booked with another company and had to cancel after waiting for them 3 days with still no driver.

Work with Cody. Chose this company due to good reviews. Transported my vehicle cross country for work. Cost was comparable to other quotes I saw online.
Very professional and organized on the phone, detailed emails to document everything appropriately as well. Followed up as he said he would. Actual transport people also very professional, ended up delivering the car a day early which was a plus. Smooth and painless process.

I used Ship A Car to coordinate transporting a Ford F550 Boom Lift truck from Waxahatchie, Texas to Portland, OR. This was the first time I had purchased an out of state vehicle and was nervous about the process. I shopped online and called around for quotes and found Ship A Car to be the lowest price by far for a fully insured shipment. Justen was courteous and professional, explained the process in full detail, and quickly put my mind at ease. When I had questions, he was always available to take my call, and made the process very simple from start to finish. He even checked in with me while the truck was en-route to make sure the driver was on schedule. We will be buying another truck soon, and I will definitely call Ship A Car to coordinate the shipment.

I used this brokerage company to transport my car from NJ to Michigan, when I spoke to the original Sales Rep he told me that the vehicle would be transported on an 18 wheeler not on a Pickup truck towing a bed of 3 or 4 cars. That did not happen, then though the rest of the issue does not completely fall on their line of work they did nothing to help me out. The company that actually transported my car which Ship a car outsourced to did not initiate any communication at all. Throughout the process of delivery of my vehicle I was calling the shipper for time slots and changes in schedule. Never did the shipper call me to indicate a change in schedule. Then to add insult to injury due construction that was happening on my main street the shipper could not deliver the car to my house I had to walk a mile to go pick up my car, or I would have to drive 45 minutes away to pick up my car. Though the contract explicitly says the car would be delivered to my home. Again Ship A Car has nothing to do with this process, but in the end my contract is with Ship A Car, and when I complained about all these issues they did nothing to rectify the situation. The "Manager" asks me did the vehicle get delivered? I said yes, then that is all we promised. Such a piss poor way to handle the customer service end of things. Though most of the issues are the shippers my contract is with them and they deserved to be shunned for the way the handled the situation.

I have used your service twice now. Bob M. in Florida has taken care of me both times. I defiantly was an extremely difficult customer this past time . I was having a hard time arranging and planning my move back home. I think I had to change the date 3 times. Bob was the most understanding person and even became my friend during the process �� If anyone could ease ur mind and reassure you that everything would be ok it was Bob. I would recommend him to everyone that uses ur service He's amazing and I will cherish our friendship always.

I am so glad that I found Ship A Car, Inc. Pepper was a delight to work with and really made this move happen for us. I really appreciate her attention to detail and follow up! We could not have completed this without her management of this process, when we ran into a couple of issues along the way she addressed them immediately and made sure everything stayed on schedule. I will definitely use Ship A Car in the future and I have already referred others to them. Thank you!

The rep who answered the phone was a car person. He explained to me that his dad had lots of cars and he had a Dairy Queen and they parked their cars out front. I’ve always been around race cars and he has a racecar. So, out of all the people I talked to, whoever that rep was, he was the most knowledgeable. He is probably Ship A Car’s best salesman. The car was to be transported to my house and they said it would be here Friday. I was out of town and I was driving back from Fort Worth in the evening on Wednesday, and I get a call. The man said that he would like to drop off my car that night. I said that I was not even at my house and asked how he got down so fast. It was Wednesday. He said not to worry about it and asked if he could drop it off between 7:00 and 8:00.
I got up in the morning and my wife informed me that the sprinkler people were coming. So at 7:15, at least four pickup trucks and about eight guys showed up, and they all parked around our house. And at 7:45, a neighbor, two houses down, was replacing their fence. So, another four trucks showed up with eight guys. And accordingly, I’m going, “Where is this guy?” And sure enough, here he comes with the transport, zigzagging in between all these parked trucks. He asked where he would park. I told him to back it in our cul-de-sac and he did. Then, the local security guard asked if I was moving. I told him I was getting a car delivered. So, he stops.
There must be 20 people, all watching. Then the driver asked if I knew how to drive a stick shift. He couldn’t get the car out of the carrier because he couldn’t drive a stick. So I told him I would help him. He’s got two cars in the carrier, mine, which follow in the front, and another car that’s barely turned over. It’s shaking and rattling, and he backs that out. He puts it in neutral and it’s just sitting there idly. He comes back in and gives me the keys. I asked him if he realized how much space there was between the door and the carrier and I couldn't get in the car. He’s a skinny guy so he gets in the car. I told him to wind the window down, get out of the car and let me see if I can hold on the top of the carrier, and I’ll get in like a racecar driver. So, that’s what I did. And the moment I turned on that car, I was in heaven. The sound of that car gave me goosebumps, and I backed it up probably about a half a mile per hour, super slow.
I drive around all the cars and I said that I got to inspect this because it was way dustier than what the photo showed. I looked at it and it was perfect. Finally, my wife started talking to the two other people that wanted to talk to me but I said that I gotta get this in the garage and check it out. The driver was gonna leave and once he leaves, if there were any problems, it’s sorry, Charlie. Then, we paid the driver and he was all smiles because it was 1s, 5s, 10s, 20s and 50s. We hadn't had a chance to go to the bank to just give him a 100. And he got in his trailer. It was a very nice experience.

CALLED SHIP A CAR FOR A QUOTE TO MOVE A CAR. LAWRENCE ANSWERED AND FROM THAT MOMENT ON MY WHOLE PROCESS WAS SIMPLE AND PAINLESS. THE PRICES AND SERVICE WERE IMPECCABLE. LAWRENCE WAS PERSONABLE, FUNNY AND PAID COMPLETE ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING I SAID, SO IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF TRANSPORTING SERVICES, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND CALL LAWRENCE AT SHIP A CAR. IT WAS A WORRY FREE EXPERIENCE, THANK YOU LAWRENCE.

i am very pleased with Jocelyn with Ship a Car, she helped me with booking a driver to ship a car to my son from Georgia to Utah. I was sceptical at first from talking to other compananies and they were giving me different answers about a quote. Jocelyn was straight up with me, she gave me her word that she would not stop until she got me a driver and stay in contact with me the entire process which she did. even after my son received the car she checked with me to make sure everything was good. Thank you for your help.

The Ship A Car rep told me everything that I needed to know. Everything went as well as it could have. However, in-between times, I didn't get any updates. But as far as the information he gave me and what was done, it was spot on. The pickup was in Columbus, Ohio and the drop-off was in Frisco, Texas. The car got there a day earlier than expected, so that was a plus. I was happy about that. The driver was also great. He called and said he was about 40 minutes out. He dropped it off, signed the paperwork and received the money. I will recommend Ship A Car to anybody going that route.

I must apologize for not writing sooner, but our move has extremely long and our household just arrived (computers as well). I can’t say enough good things about the excellent service we received! Your communications with us, answering all my questions and keeping me calm all the way through the process were priceless. Our driver “Ihar” was fabulous! He made contact with us and came through as promised on arrival time. He took his time (being a true professional) to make sure that both cars were hooked up nice and tight to ensure no damage would come to them. He took photos of the cars and was very professional and kept in touch with us on his arrival. He was so quick getting our cars to their destination, that he beat us there. He did not complain about having to wait 3 hours, while our plane landed and we made our way over to meet him. The cars were in the same condition as when they left. We were very, very happy with his service! We will definitely refer “Shipacarinc” to anyone who asked us about shipping a car!

Willie was great to deal with - following up when he said he would and easing my mind throughout the entire transaction since I was dealing with a few movers. When needed, will certainly work with Willie again.

Willie was my transport advisor. He arranged enclose shipping for a 1966 Ford Thunderbird to be picked up in Plantation, Florida and delivered 3000 miles later in Seattle, Washington. It was a first class experience and the car was delivered on-time and in perfect condition. Thank you Ship A Car and Willie.

My recent relocation from Seattle to Pittsburgh was less stressful because of the service that Ship A Car provided—Yvonne B. coordinated with both my husband and I to have my car shipped. Both drivers were very nice and professional. It was a no-hassle process with the driver picking up my car on time and at my apartment, and then delivering it on time and at my apartment. Definitely recommend this service.

Thank you Meredith for your assistance. I was pleasantly surprised that the car made it to me 2 days earlier than you originally quoted. Thank you for checking on the status on your end and for following up afterwards to make sure I got what I needed.

Contacted Nicole at "Ship a Car" about transporting vehicle from MI to NC. She had a driver dispatched in a 24 hours! Costs was reasonable, but most importantly, the actual costs didn't change from the quoted costs. Excellent Service. Thx Nicole.

Ship a car did a wonderful job shipping my cousins car. Sam was so nice and helpful with dealing with my father. My father was trying to take care of this transaction and make all the arrangements. I was the middle person to just clarify some things. Sam took the time to explain to me of everything that was happening and told me what was required from me/my dad. It takes a lot of patience for someone to figure out the details of delivering a car. I will probably use this company if I ever need to ship a car. Thank you ship a car and also thank you Sam for the great service!!!!!

My experience with DANA was amazing. She was very profesional from the first phone call. I will give her 10/10 in keeping up with communication when I was concerned with the Truck driver and his lack of communication. Car was picked up on time and delivery was on time. (PA to CA move was done in 4 days). I did have some issue with the truck driver regarding pickup and delivery timings but Dana kept good communication with me. I have a new 2019 model of luxury car and it was delivered in very good condition. Please ask for Dana when you call.
